Guitars I have owned
My very first electric guitar - a Top Twenty from the Freemans catalogue!
|
Framus Strato Gold Deluxe - my second electric guitar
bought at a gig off some guy for £40
A Jedson Les Paul, - it looked so much like the real thing I painted the Gibson logo on the headstock!
The real thing! A 1973 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe bought from Whites in Sunderland. I part exchanged both the Framus and the Jedson for this
My drummer Jeff Davies loved to goad me about Strats being better than Gibsons. As an owner of a Gibson I would never agree, but I always secretly wanted a Strat. This is a 1972 black sunburst with a maple neck was my first.
1984 saw me buy a new Fender American Strat Plus with Lace Sensor Pickups
This was stolen in 1994 and was the first strat with a Roland GK2A MIDI
pickup fitted
My current workhorse a black 1995 Fender American Strat Ultra with a Roland GK2A MIDI pickup fitted. It has an ebony fingerboard
This is actually my son's Fender Mexican '60's Strat which I am borrowing and using in the studio because of its superb sound
